I attacked my Mom, how do I make things right?
3 days ago I recently attacked my Mom for the reason that she was verbally provoking me, but I know that this does not justify at all the actions I did (I'm 14 years old). The things I did to her was choke her and spit in her face, and shoved her into the ground and kicked her in the shin away from me. This was the first time I ever touched my Mom that way, and even she was surprised. My little brother ended up calling the cops, and I was on the verge of having charges pressed on me for domestic violence. The reality of the things I did to my Mom didn't kick in for her until today. I cannot believe my anger exploded in the way it did that night, and now I'm worried about the repercussions about those actions. Even though I know she will never forget that night, how can I let my Mom know I can be a changed man too, and basically turn my life around enough to the point where she recognized I have changed? I'm worried if I ever try to get a job or get in a relationship, or any situation where my mom plays a big factor in the outcome, the haunting actions I did that night will all come back crashing down onto my ***. Like imagine I get a girlfriend and my mom secretly tells my girlfriend about my past behavior. Well, there goes my chance. But I want to change it to the point where my mom has nothing but good things to say about me. How can that happen?
I'm aware that my *** should of been put in jail. But what are you saying is that my relationship with my mother is screwed? I know sorry won't change things.
Thanks for the honesty, as mothers or sons. The cops told me it isn't normal for sons to abuse their moms. But i'm trying to make a change for the better. Are you saying I might as well should stand aside and do NOTHING about it?

3 Days is not enough time to convince her you have changed. ask her to forgive you and start by doing nice things like helping around the house and every time you do so tell her you love her. get her roses just because! also pray every night to god to forgive you, just think when you flip out think what if my mom was dead imagine her in a casket gone forever, and also if and when you have your daughter do you want another man hitting your baby girl or even killing her with just one blow. women and girls are meant to be loved you are here because of a women so please try an be nice as a mother of two we won't be here for ever : )

Do you think God wants you to become a better person? Yes, of course He does - and the reason is because He loves you, and He does not want you to go through life the way you have been, and end up destroying yourself.
And this is why the first prayer you need to make is a prayer of confession and faith - confessing your sins to God and by faith asking Jesus Christ to come into your life as your Savior and Lord. You can't change your life by yourself; you aren't strong enough. Instead you need God's help - and He wants to give it to you. But before He can help you, you must open your heart and life to Christ. Why not give your life to Him today?
Then ask God to strengthen your faith every day. Some people accept Christ into their lives - but then don't do anything to strengthen their faith. Jesus compared them to tender plants that begin to grow, "but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away" (Luke 8:13). Don't let this happen to you!
Instead, get in a church where Christ is preached, and where you can learn from the Bible and from other believers. Make the Bible part of your daily life also, and pray about every situation and temptation you face. Just as we need food to grow strong physically, so we need the spiritual "food" of prayer, the Bible and fellowship with other believers to grow strong in our faith.

Awww I feel so bad for your mom </3 She's the woman who brought you into this world, who clothed, bathed, and sheltered you and this is how you repay her... Nothing she could have said should of made you do this. You should be ashamed and if I were her I would never speak to you again and have pressed charges. She must be a lovely woman for letting you off the hook. She's probably scared to death that poor woman </3

That's disgusting. I wish that the police would have pressed charges on you because you deserve it if you truly did that to your own mother. My mom has said some extremely insulting things, but I've never laid an aggressive hand on her. You need to get help because you obviously have some issues going on. That isn't normal. I hope that your mom does warn your future girlfriends and employers of your violent behavior. Things like that shouldn't be written off.
